For those who are interested. I took the time today to upgrade VB 3.8 (our current forum version) to VB 4.0 on a duplicate/copy forum. Overall, it took me quite some time but it was well worth it. For those who want to know, VBulletin 4 is the latest version of the VBulletin forums, and also a large scale update. You can see this as an expansion pack for a game. While I cannot show you the VB4 forums due to license agreement, I can show you some images that I made.

<a href="http://esforces.com/vb4/vbulletin1.jpg"><img src="http://esforces.com/vb4/vbulletin1_t.jpg"></a> <a href="http://esforces.com/vb4/vbulletin2.jpg"><img src="http://esforces.com/vb4/vbulletin2_t.jpg"></a> <a href="http://esforces.com/vb4/vbulletin3.jpg"><img src="http://esforces.com/vb4/vbulletin3_t.jpg"></a>
<a href="http://esforces.com/vb4/vbulletin4.jpg"><img src="http://esforces.com/vb4/vbulletin4_t.jpg"></a> <a href="http://esforces.com/vb4/vbulletin5.jpg"><img src="http://esforces.com/vb4/vbulletin5_t.jpg"></a>​

While VBulletin 4 has some good & nice improvements.. It also has it's downsides. I had to un-install every single plugin before I went to upgrade the copy forums to VBulletin 4.. And as you can see, all styles also broke down. That's why you see the default VB4 style. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. And not to worry, we won't upgrade this forum just yet to VB4 as currently it's still in Beta.

I'm showing it to you guys and will reply to your messages so you know what to expect later on.

Well, yea.. Some people like it, others don't. It's always a good thing people can create styles. I'm not too fond myself of the new default style, but if needed I can always download a new VB4 theme to replace the default later on.

So long as http://forum.esforces.com brings me to that first screenshot and not some vbulletin homepage, I'm fine with it.

I like it. But, I would say get a Dbz based skin atleast. Maybe scrap some old themes and use em.

Other then the Dull looking skin I like it.

It dosn't really matter much for me how it looks like... As far as i know of every new version of VB has been criticised one way or another. IMO if you've payed for the new version here, then set it up and make it so we use it. No point in paying for something and not useing it
